On Thursday, Nov. 14, the Newseum (555 Pennsylvania Ave., N.W., Washington, DC 20001) will open its highly anticipated “Anchorman: The Exhibit,” featuring props, costumes and footage from the comedy classic “Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy.” The exhibit, created in partnership with Paramount Pictures, opens just weeks before the film’s much-awaited sequel “Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues” hits theaters on Dec. 20.
Visitors to the exhibit will be greeted by an 8-foot-tall revolving display case featuring the iconic burgundy business suit worn by fictional newscaster Ron Burgundy, played in both movies by actor Will Ferrell. More than 60 costumes and hilarious props from the movie will be on display throughout the exhibit, including Ron’s “I’M #1” license plate, jazz flute and mustache brush.
